Mr Clements Explains

Many people have expressed surprise that Clt-iiehts Tonic has met with such wonderful and unprecedented "success iv suet) a .short linia. The explau.-uion is simple— it is gkmuine. I saw the tliousands of worthless hogs will American nostrums flooding the Australian market year by y< ar, month by month, flay by day, and knew that a great amount of monoy ieft these shores annually in return for these rubbishy articles, all of which made the country so much the poorer. I also knew that the exigencies <jf life in this country and the,cli« mate necessitated the, use of artificial bloodmaker to restore the inoriual, condition and vital forces which \»eie,so enervated by climatic »nd other influences. I also saw the thin, pale, delicate, :md attenuated men and noinen of Australian cities, and studied; the causes and ways and means of remedy mg the evil ; I saw lliat it was impos», hipleto bring the, article. required 'into popular favour ekcej.t in the'form)of a pa teut" medicine/ 1 'know of the thou sand:< or pounds spent by the public annuully in purcnaMng inert and sometimes harmful oneucions of worthless ingredients, and a9ked myself— Why can't^we manufacture the article fhe public require, and make. it^ of genuine - v oud best materials', and give an article . --' which will do the good which other -makers only claim that theirs nillldo? I knew, that buch a, remedy could be ~m>ide,_and that unless it met with public 'approval great loss must result. How ever, I deiirmined to venture on its m.tro--duction, and thus Clempnts tonig came 'to 'be made, anJ in the short space of two 'years it lia> spread oyer the whole face of this- continent. It is sold in every stor.e in Australia as freely as in Sydney; • anil the mere fact of its enormous sale in „ iliis-eitv is proof, positive of its virtuse, ifoi\np ar,*i<jle can command a great sale • at the home of its birth unless it is 'absolutely ami conclusively proved to be -p<-nuine tr laments Tonic has replaced "every other article offered, and bus the -largrst consumption tenrold of any other Australian medicine*; and this is not due to the, advertising expenditure of its .proprietor, bjut to. its pure, undisputed s-merit. Fellow yiustrnliane, ,Tye don't want the Yankee quack to dump his 'ship loads/ ofj clap trap fooleries and ■-^cure alls en. our Australian shores, and 'fool us on witfc his smooth tongue and humbug ; neither do we want "him to suck the- vitality and marrow out ••of our people with his consignments of • chemical slop*, which with specious '.plausibility, he guarantees to cure everything- from epilepsy to impecuniosity. We want a genuine article, made in our 'own. land, by our own people, bought "with our own money ; then the money lemains in our own country, and the country is so much the richer thereby - and we all have a chance of handling it • again ; whereas, if it once gets into the i.tpacuius maw of the Yankee quack, farewell! it is gone for ever. I know nyaiticle is genuine, and that it constains th<> material to make it cure disease ~\ihere di -ease- is curable. You may de» 7.pend upon it that if Clements Tonic fail's ■.all others must fail. I can produce ]i indreds of proofs, of the truth of my htatements and the virtues of ray remedy - P. M. Clements^ Nawtown, N.S W.
